escorted by Colonel Lamont. The next
trip of Importance was made in july.
when the President and Mrs. Cleve-
land, Colonel Lamont and his charm
ing wife again joLrneyed together to at
tend the Centennial celebration at Gin
ton, the former home of Mr.. Clevelands
father and the place where portion of
his own childhood days had been passed.
They stopped on the way to visit Miss
Cleveland at Holland Patent. After at
tending the Clinton celebration, they went
to Utica, where large reception was held
at the Butterfield House, 300 people being
presented to Mrs. Cleveland on this occa-
sion. Then aquiet week of true enjoyment
was passed at the home of the Rev. Will
liam n. Cleveland, at Forrestport. While
here the party were invited to take the
time honored excursion down the st.
Lawrence to the Thousand Islands, the
steamer st. Lawrence being placed at
their disposal. 1t was on their return
from this delightful trip that the engi-
neer of the special train was killed and
the passengers miraculously escaped
death. While running at a tremendous
rate of speed some of the couplings gave
way and sudden stop threw all in
confusion. Mr.. Cleveland afterward
contributed largely to the relief
fund of the stricken family of
the poor man, besides arranging that
everything that could be done to alleviate
their unfortunate condition be promptly
attended to at his expense. 1t was a bad
ending to a journey otherwise so fraught
with pleasant memories. Arriving at
Casinovia on the 18th, the party were the

A YEAR AGO RECALLED.
Why the Presidential Party Will be
Interested in Minneapolis.

Interested i'll minneapolis.
There is a peculiar reason why Mrs.
Cleveland will be interested in Min
neapolis. The city is connected with one
of the greatest events of her life. The
fair young girl who occupies the
proud position of first lady of the
land was party to two events which
attracted to her the public attention.
The first was when, in 1885, she be-
came the bride of the President the
second was when, in 1856, she started
the machinery of the Minneapolis
Industrial Exposition. She has never
seen Minneapolis. Her only idea of
it has been cleaned from reading
matter, and her best information has
come through the columns of THE
GLOBE, her favorite paper. 1t is
natural that she should feel a great
interest and curiosity in Minneapolis
after having started the machinery in
the first annual exposition, and that,
too, separated by distance of over L. 200
miles, as the crow flies.
The scene at each end of the wire that
carried the message was a memorable one
On the east was small, lovely lake in the
Adirondack mountains at Saranac The
piazza of the Swiss chalet held round
table on which clicked telegraph instru-
ment. An operator stood by it, smilingly
watched by Mrs. Cleveland from few
steps distant. The President sat in chair,
watch in hand and had just remarked:
at must be four o'clock in Mime
apolis'
As he spoke, the instrument clicked off
lively tune and the operator read a mes
sage from the Exposition. The President
and his wife smiled and the operator
said:
"All ready, Mrs. Cleveland"
She stepped to the table and pressed her
forefinger on the key. In less than a
minute came the answering click, with
the message that the ponderous ma
chinery was in full motion. Congratula-
tons were exchanged, and the Saranac
party joined some friends on boating
expedition.
At the western end of the wire was
scene in wide contrast with the quiet
reigning on the Adirondack mountains.
The vast Exposition building, first opened
to the public, was crowded to its seating
capacity. The sweet strains of the Mexi-
can band foated from the east gallery,
while the silver of eloquence streamed
from the west. Senator Davis was deliv-
ering the Grafton. after Mayor Ames had

guests of Mrs. Linklin. They left the fol-
lowing day for visit to Mr. Cleveland's
sister, Mrs. Hoyt, at Fayetteville, and at
tended two large receptions. Thence the
party returned to Casinovia and took the
six o'clock train for home. This trip of
nearly two weeks unceasing travel was
spent in a most fatiguing round of gave
ties. Yet Mrs. CleveIand's splendid
physique and perfect health carried her
bravely through.
Early in August Mrs. Cleveland, feel
ing the need of short rest and change,
gladly awaited herself of General and
Mrs. Greely's kind offer to take posses
sion OF their cottage at Marion, Mass,
fore any Of the local journals knew she
had left Washington.
Mrs. Cleveland returned from her stay
"by the sad sea waves with bright and
glowing health and greatly streng thened
for the fatigue necessarily consequent
upon their present Western tour.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1887-10-11


the telegraph instrument near a. hand.
Then came pause and the silence could
almost be felt. Suddenly came sharp
click, followed by loud puff of steam
and burst from the fountains; then
the roar of the machinery, the fierce and
shrill screaming of whistles, the blare of
brass music, the waving of handkerchiefs
and clapping of hands, and above all the
tremendous applause of thousands of
people.
Yes; Mrs. Cleveland will certainly take
an interest in Minneapolis, and this little
incident which, although it may seem
trivial to some, has to an extent endeared
the President and Mrs. Cleveland to the
people of Minneapolis. 1t was the
and fulfilled the invitation to assist in
the opening exercises of the exposi-
ton. Those who were present upon
that occasion when the great building
was opened on the 23d of August
remember the hush that fell upon the
vast assembly when it was announced
that Mrs. Cleveland would touch the tele-
graph operators key at the Prospect
House, Upper Saranac New York, and
thus convey the signal for the starting of
the machinery. First, the following greet
ing was received from President Cleveland:
Hon. w. ID. Washbarn, President: With
many thanks for the kind message sent
to us by the officers and directors of the
Minneapolis Industrial Exposition, Mrs
| Cleveland joins me in rendering to them
hearty congratulations upon the auspic-
ious inauguration of an exhibition which
not only demonstrates the prosperity and
progress of the great Northwest, but must
also reflect credit upon a country whose
greatest pride is the happiness and con-
tentment of its people and their enjoy
ment of all the gifts of God. Mrs. Cleve-
land gladly complies with your request
and will set in motion the machinery of
the exposition. She now awaits your
signal.

Newspapers at the White House.

Nearly every newspaper in the country
finds its way 20 the White House Dur
ing the afternoon, the papers having
been all arranged in piles. Colonel La
mont looks over them. When he sees
anything he thinks is good, or that will
be of service to the President, he marks it
with blue pencil. After he has "gone
over the papers they are carried into
Colonel Crooks Office. He is the disburs-
ing clerk of the White House. Colonel
Crook then takes forth his shears
and cuts out all the blue-marked
paragraphs and pastes them in
scrap-book, and this is kept for the
Presidents inspection. Mrs. Cleveland
IN her mail receives a great number of
clippings from newspapers, the majority
being about herself. She enjoys reading
these, and keeps scrap-book, too, and It
IS most Interesting one, displaying as it
journalism.

Those who knew frankie Folsom
when she lived in ST. Paul are now
grown to womanhood, and many of them
are among the best-known ladies in the
sanity city. Some are dead and some
have married and gone to other cities.
Some who are in the city now say that
Mrs. Cleveland once attended school in ST.
Paul, and some there are who say they
attended with her and were in her classes
But from the investigation that THE
GLOBE reporter made it appears that at no
time could it be said that she was at
school in this city. A lady well known
is a relative-a cousin-of Mrs. Fol
som, and from her the statement
comes that never was the name of frankie
Folsom on the roll of regular attendants.
The school where she is said by others to
have been pupil was the private insti-
tuition, conducted by two sisters, the
Misses Wheaton, and located at the cor
ner of Fifth and Franklin streets. 1t
was school where young ladies were
taught the higher branches and where
special attention was given to department
and
THE REFINING GRACEs
that should make its graduates fitted to
shine in the highest social circles. The
attendance was large, and to the inhu-
ences, direct and indirect, of the teaching
there many in st. Paul owe large debts of
gratitude at this present time
1t was at the house of Captain Hud-
dleston on Exchange street, near Sher-
man, that Mrs. Folsom and her daughter
lived. Mrs. Folsom was introduced as a
half-sister of Captain Huddleston, who
was one of st. Paul's well-known citi-
zens, who had married a lady from Buff
falo, n. Y. That part of the city where
he lived, then as now, was the home of
many OF st. PauPs first citizens. 1t
seems that at least ON two different times
and some incline to think on more occa.
sions than that, Mrs. Folsom and her
daughter, frankie, visited the Huddle-
stOn home, each time for periods perhaps
of six weeks or two months, and it was
on these visits that frankie, then thir-
teen or fourteen years old, made the &C
uuaintance of those who remember her
now.
"She never could have attended the
Wheaton, or any other school, for her
visits to st. Paul were not long enough,
and she did not come out here from
Buffalo for that purpose" said Mrs J..
B. Cook, the lady above referred to as
relative of the Folsom family to GLOBE
reporter. Captain Huddleston had a
daughter, Minnie, about Frankie's age,
who may have attended school there at
the tin e. and it is more than probable
that her'visitor went with her as sort
of cdFA Schoolgirl visitor, and probably it was
from these frequent visits that the others
who were pupils there at the time have

chat until the twilight hours were quite
the event of their daily life.
In December of 1886 Mrs. Cleveland
and her mother spent few days in New
York for the purpose of selecting fur
nishings for Oak View, then recently
purchased, as well as investing in numer-
Gus Christmas gifts. Later in the month
she accompanied Mrs. Ehdicott to Bos-
ton, where they were the guests of Mrs.
Endicott's sister, Mrs. Mason. Last
summer the President and Mrs Cleveland
again went to the Adirondacks. Here was
spent the first anniversary of their we'd
ding, in little fishing boat angling for
trout on which occasion, it is said, Mrs.
Cleveland was more successful than her
experienced husband. Returning in the
evening, the party found the cottage
tastefuIly decorated in honor of the
occasion by some thoughtful guests at
the hotel, with the date in flowers upon
background of dark green pine placed
over the entrance to the dining-room.
After fortnight's stay the cares of office
called the happy party reluctantly away
from their summer rest, and the Presi-
dent, leaving his wife as the guest of Gov
ernor Hill at the executive mansion at
Albany, returned home greatly benefited
in health by the change
Upon leaving the governor the follow
ing morning, Mrs. Cleveland went direct
to the home of her friend and former
schoolmate, Miss Virginia Kingsford,
at Oswego, where large reception was
given in her honor by Mr.. Thomas
Kingsford. She also attended luncheon
given her by Miss Alice Churchill,
daughter of Justice Churchill, of the
Supreme Court of the State.
From Oswego Mrs. Cleveland was &C
companied to Wells College at Aurora
by Miss Kingsford, both being graduates
of that institution. On June 81 she at
tended the graduating exercises, on
which occasion she presented the di-
plomas. On the evening of the same
day she visited Cayuga Lake Military
Academy also at Aurora. Mrs. Cleveland
left for Washington the following Friday,

about more than her busy husband.
On the morning of June l, 1856, Miss
Folsom, then recently returned from
abroad, left her home in New York in
company with her mother to make her
first Journey to the White House, where
her marriage was solemnized upon the
following day. In the evening the Pres
ident and his wife left for a weeks stay
at Deer Park, Nd, where a pretty cottage
adjoining was in readiness for their COM
ing. Here they were joined after few
days by Mrs. Folsom with Colonel and
Mrs. Lamont their carriage and horses
having been sent on ahead of them
Many charming drives were enjoyed by
the party through the beautiful noun
tain scenery in which this spot abounds.
Mrs Cleveland's next trip was a pleas
ure jaunt with her husband to the Adj
rondacks They left Washington on the
10Th of August for Lake Saranac As
the train sped through the mountain
region crowds of curious natives gathered
along the route Just to gain peep at the
fair young mistress of the White House.
One burly mountaineer. catching a
glimpse of Mrs. Folsom and installing
her for the object of his search, exclaimed
with enthusiasm, Now, that's what |
call a rale pretty woman" After leaving
the railway terminus there was a long
stage ride before the cottage was reached
in which the presidential party were domi-
ciled. Colonel and Mrs. Lamont were
in the party. The ladies often spent
their mornings. when the weather proved
too unfavorable for outdoor sport. in
pleasant wanderings in and out among
the many curious old corners and cuddV
holes with which the cottage abounded,

neuralgia in a

Drs. D. Jose Felix Study and d.

Mr.. Alfred Hay, the great sheep

P. o., N. S. W., Australia: "St. Jacobs

What are the virtues of this great
remedy which the President of the
United States might do well to carry
in his gripsack, and which distin-
guished men of the world have used
with benefit? Is that its secret?
What it is and what it is not can be
briefly told; has been told in thou
sand ways, and by thousands it has
been used. 1t cures with Jeffersonian
simplicity and remains a cure with
the stubbornness of Andrew Jackson.
1t is not merely a rubefacient to ir-
ritate the outer surface, nor is it
merely an emollient or embrocation
to soften or relax CONSTRUCTED mus
Gle, but in its specific action it COM
bines the specific properties of the
best of these, with superior cura-
tive virtue superadded.
1t penetrates deeply but gently,
searchingly and surely; it is kind but
firm, holding on and seeking the pain
spot. 1t subdues easily; it soothes
instantly; it cures permanently.
The most remarkable proof of this
permanency of cure has been furnished
the proprietors in an unexpected form,
but at the same time most gratifying.
In duty bound to look after the in
